WIP Inspection

You use this program to inspect and maintain inspection references for made-in parent part items requiring inspection before actually accepting them into stock. Once inspected, items can be accepted into stock, scrapped or returned for rework.

WIP Inspection

Field Description
WIP inspection reference Indicate the inspection reference you want to inspect or maintain.

WIP Inspection Details

You cannot select the Inspect, Scrap Rework and Accept options if you are denied access to the activity: WIP Inspection functions (Operator Maintenance - Security - Activities).

Additionally, these options are disabled if you navigated to the WIP Inspection program from the WIP Query or Inventory Query programs.

Field Description
Inspection details  
WIP inspection reference This indicates the inspection reference number you are currently maintaining.
Job This indicates the WIP job for the inspection reference.
Job description This indicates the description defined against the job (Job Entry).
Stock code This indicates the stock code for the inspection reference.
Stock code description This indicates the description of the stock item.
Rev

This indicates the revision for the stock item, if the stock item is defined as ECC controlled (see Stock Code Maintenance - Tracking).

The wording for this field defaults to Rev/Rel, but is replaced by whatever wording you have assigned to these user-defined fields (Bill of Materials Setup).

Rel

This indicates the release for the stock item, if the stock item is defined as ECC controlled (see Stock Code Maintenance - Tracking).

The wording for this field defaults to Rev/Rel, but is replaced by whatever wording you have assigned to these user-defined fields (Bill of Materials Setup).

Co-product line This indicates the line number allocated to the co-product being inspected. Co-product lines are added by the system when using the BOM Co-products program to attach co-products to notional parts.
Warehouse This indicates the warehouse for the stock code.
Warehouse description This indicates the description of the warehouse.
Lot This indicates the lot for the stock code, if the stock code is defined as lot traceable (Stock Code Maintenance - Tracking).
Expiry date

This indicates the current expiry date for the lot. This is calculated as the shelf life period defined against the stock item (Stock Code Maintenance - Tracking), to the current date.

If the lot already exists on file and has an expiry date greater than zero, then that date is displayed.

You can change the expiry date providing the lot does not already exists in the Lot Detail file.

Transaction date Select this to indicate the date you want to set against the transactions processed during the current run of the program.
Post Select this to post the transaction.

Refer to Inspect, Scrap details, Rework details and Accept Details for details on this function for each of these transactions.

Inspect

Select this to receive the made-in stock item into an inspection file (see Inspect).

This function is disabled once the Quantity inspected equals the Quantity manufactured.

This function is not available if you have been denied access to the activity: WIP Inspection inspect (Operator Maintenance - Security tab - Activities).

Scrap

Select this to scrap inspected quantities (see Scrap details).

This function is not available if you are denied access to the activity: WIP Inspection scrap (Operator Maintenance - Security).

Rework

Select this to allocate inspected quantities back to the original job or to a new job to be reworked (see Rework details).

When you issue an item back to the job for rework, the quantity manufactured is not reduced. The item is treated as a specific issue of the parent part back to the job.

When you rework a quantity against the same job in SYSPRO, the parent is issued back to the job for the rework quantity in the form of an allocation and hence the manufactured quantity is not reversed. The material costs to date have been increased by the parent rework allocation and when you receipt the rework quantity back into inspection, the quantity manufactured will be increased by the rework quantity. In addition, the rework quantity on the Inspection table is not removed from the inspection reference (to maintain an audit trail). You have to generate a new inspection reference for the rework quantity manufactured again.

This function is not available if you are denied access to the activity: WIP Inspection rework (Operator Maintenance - Security tab - Activities).

Accept

Select this to receive inspected items into stock (see Accept Details).

This function is not available if you are denied access to the activity: WIP Inspection accept (Operator Maintenance - Security tab - Activities).

You cannot accept an item into stock for a job linked to a sales order for which a delivery note has already been printed if the activity: S/O Maintain s/order after d/note print is denied against your operator code (Operator Maintenance - Security tab).

Transaction Date

The transaction date defaults to the current system date, if you selected the option: Set accounting date to system date (Operator Maintenance). The transaction date is used as the journal start date and the inventory movement date.

For example, if the transaction extends over two days (e.g. the processing of the transaction begins before midnight and ends after midnight) then the actual date of posting is used instead of the date on which the program was loaded. In this example, the date after midnight is used as the transaction date.

[Note]

We recommend that you exercise caution when setting the transaction date.

A number of programs provide the facility to change the date that must be used for the transaction.

If you change the transaction date manually, then the entered date is used regardless of the actual date on which the transaction is posted.

Regardless of the date you enter, however, the transaction is posted to the General Ledger period that matches the period of the module at the time the transaction is posted (i.e. posting to the General Ledger is period-driven, not date-driven).

Because reports are date-driven, changes to the transaction date can affect the information that is included in the report.

Inspect

This pane is displayed when you select the Inspect function to receive the made-in stock item into an inspection file.

You will be unable to receive items into inspection if you have been denied access to the activity: WIP Inspection inspect (Operator Maintenance - Security tab - Activities).

Enter the quantity of the stock item you want to receive into inspection.

The total quantity inspected cannot be greater than the quantity manufactured.

If you enter a negative quantity, then the negative quantity is deducted from the quantity already in inspection. The total quantity in inspection cannot be less than zero.

Document Enter a document number for the inspection.
Inspection complete

This field is automatically selected when the Quantity inspected equals the Quantity manufactured.

You cannot change the Inspected quantity once the Inspection complete field is selected.

Scrap details

This pane is displayed when you use the Scrap function to scrap inspected quantities.

You will be unable to scrap items if you have been denied access to the activity: WIP Inspection scrap (Operator Maintenance - Security tab - Activities). Additionally, if a password is defined for WIP Maintain scrap inspection quantity (Password Definition), then you need to enter the correct password before you can use the Scrap function.

Field Description
Post

Select this to scrap the item and to add the quantity you entered to the quantity already scrapped.

A transaction is created for the quantity scrapped.

If Inventory is linked to the General Ledger (General Ledger Integration - General tab), then the following journal is created:

  • Debit Ledger Code entered against the scrap transaction (above)
  • Credit WIP inspection account (General Ledger Integration - WIP tab)

Additionally, the quantity in inspection (against the warehouse) is reduced by the quantity scrapped and the value in inspection is reduced by the transaction value.

If you selected the option: Print scrap document (above) and the setup option: WIP inspection document selection is set to On line and batch (WIP Setup - General 2 tab) then the WIP Inspection Document Print program is automatically run, enabling you to print the document.

Scrap details  
Uom This indicates the unit of measure for the quantity.

The ledger code must exist and cannot be on hold (GL Structure Definition).

Ledger code description

This indicates the description defined against the General Ledger code.

Serial Numbers

Select this to use the Serial Entry for WIP Inspection program to specify the serial numbers to scrap.

This function is only enabled if all of the following apply:

  • the item you are scrapping is defined as serialized
  • serials numbers are captured during receipt (Stock Code Maintenance - Tracking)
  • serial numbers were captured at the time of receipting the item into inspection (i.e. the option: Capture serials at end of WIP inspection is not selected - WIP Setup - General 1 tab)

The quantity in inspection for the serial number is reduced and the quantity scrapped is increased in the WIP inspection serial file.

The serial number's status is set to Scrap if the resulting quantity in inspection is zero after you process the scrap transaction.

Only serial numbers in inspection can be selected.

Print scrap note document

Select this to use the WIP Inspection Document Print program to print an on-line scrap note document.

This only applies if the setup option: WIP inspection document selection is set to On line and batch (WIP Setup - General 2 tab).

Rework details

This pane is displayed when you use the Rework function to allocate inspected quantities back to the original job or to a new job to be reworked.

You will be unable to send items to be reworked if you have been denied access to the activity: WIP Inspection rework (Operator Maintenance - Security tab - Activities).

Field Description
Post

Select this to send the item(s) to be reworked and to add the quantity you entered to the quantity already sent for rework.

The quantity in inspection (against the warehouse) is reduced by the quantity sent for rework and the value in inspection is reduced by the transaction value. In addition, if you selected to create a new rework job, then the On order quantity is also increased.

If the Work in Progress module is linked to the General Ledger (General Ledger Integration), then the following journal entry is created:

  • Debit to the ledger code entered against the rework transaction (above)
  • Credit to WIP inspection account (General Ledger Integration - WIP tab) for the issue of the parent item
Rework details  
Uom This indicates the unit of measure for the quantity.
Quantity reworked

Enter the quantity of the stock item you want to send for rework.

Narration Optionally enter a narration.
Job information  
Job method Indicate whether you want to return the items back to their original job or to create a new job for the rework.
Issue back to job

Select this to return the item(s) back to the original job to be reworked.

If you select this, then an allocation is created for the parent part against the existing job. The quantity entered is issued to the job, together with the bin, lot and serial information if these were captured at the time the items were receipted into inspection. In addition, the job is marked as incomplete irrespective of whether it was previously marked as complete.

The cost of the item(s) being reworked is added to the material cost of the job.

If the original job has been purged (see WIP Period End), then this option is not available.

If a password is defined for the activity: WIP Posting to a completed job ( Password Definition), and the job is marked as complete (Job Receipts), then you are prompted to enter the password.

Create new rework job

Select this to create a new job for reworking the item(s).

If you select this, then a new job is created for the parent part, with an allocation for the parent part. The quantity entered is issued to the job, together with the bin, lot and serial information if these were captured at the time the items were receipted into inspection.

The information required to create the new job is taken from the WIP inspection reference. If the setup option: Alternate routing required is selected (Bill of Materials Setup - General tab), then the route from the original job is used. However, if the original job has been purged (see WIP Period End), then Route 0 is used.

If the original job was linked to a sales order or a master job, then these links are automatically created for the new job.

If the Job numbering method is set to Manual (WIP Setup - Numbering tab), then you are prompted to enter a job number.

Rework job

If you selected to issue the item(s) back to the job, then this field displays the job number to which the item(s) will be sent for rework.

If you selected to create a new rework job, and the Job numbering method is defined as Manual (WIP Setup - Numbering tab), then you use this field to enter the new job number to create.

WIP ledger code

This defaults to the WIP ledger control account defined against the stock code (Stock Code Maintenance - Production), or if this is not defined, then the WIP ledger control account defined on W.I.P tab of the General Ledger Integration program.

The ledger code must exist and cannot be on hold (General Ledger Codes).

Ledger code description

This indicates the description defined against the General Ledger code.

Serial Numbers

Select this to use the Serial Entry for WIP Inspection program to specify the serial numbers to rework.

This function is only enabled if all of the following apply:

  • the item you are sending for rework is defined as serialized
  • serials numbers are captured during receipt (Stock Code Maintenance - Tracking)
  • serial numbers were captured at the time of receipting the item into inspection (i.e. the option: Capture serials at end of WIP inspection is not selected - WIP Setup - General 1 tab)

The quantity in inspection for the serial number is reduced and the quantity reworked is increased in the WIP inspection serial file.

The serial number's status is set to Rework if the resulting quantity in inspection is zero after you process the rework transaction.

Only serial numbers in inspection can be selected.

Accept Details

This pane is displayed when you use the Accept function to receive inspected items into stock.

You cannot send items to be reworked if you have been denied access to the activity: WIP Inspection accept (Operator Maintenance - Security tab - Activities).

Field Description
Post

Select this accept the item(s) into stock and to add the quantity you entered to the quantity already accepted into stock.

The quantity in inspection (against the warehouse) is reduced by the quantity accepted and the value in inspection is reduced by the transaction value. In addition, the quantity on hand against the stock item is increased by the quantity accepted.

An inventory movement is created for the receipt of the item(s) into stock.

The aged inventory valuation is updated if the setup option: Aged inventory valuation required is selected (Inventory Setup - Options tab).

If the stock item is defined as a MPS item (Stock Code Maintenance - Production Details) and a build schedule exists for the item, then the build schedule is updated with the quantity accepted.

The warehouse cost is updated (according to the Costing method selected - see Inventory Setup or Warehouses for Stock Code if costing is per warehouse) using the cost entered at the time the job was receipted into inspection using the Job Receipts program. If your costing method is set to Last cost and the cost has changed, then a cost change journal is created. If your costing method is set to LIFO or FIFO, then the FIFO/LIFO buckets are updated and a FIFO/LIFO journal is created. For LIFO costing, a new LIFO bucket is created. If your costing method is set to Average, then journals for rounding errors are created if applicable.

If the stock item accepted is from a sub-job, then the quantity accepted is issued to the master job (providing you have not selected to accept the item into an alternate warehouse or as an alternate stock code). If the master job is set to Complete and a password is defined for the activity: WIP Posting to a completed job (Password Definition), then you are prompted to enter the applicable password.

If activity based costing is required for the stock item (Stock Code Maintenance - Other), then the analysis and ABC journal records are created.

If the setup option: Document selections is set to On line and batch for Receipts (Inventory Setup - Document 2 tab) then the Inventory Document Print program is automatically run, enabling you to print a stock receipt document.

If the job is linked to a sales order and you have not selected the options: Accept into an alternate warehouse or Accept as an alternate stock code (above), then the backorder quantity for the sales order line is updated according to the quantity accepted. Additionally, if the setup option: Apply check when quantity moved to ship is selected (Sales Order Setup - Terms/Margins tab), then credit checking is performed before the sales order is updated. If the credit check fails and the setup option: Exclude all order lines which fail credit checking B/O Release is selected (Sales Order Setup - Terms/Margins tab), then the sales order line is not updated. If the credit check fails and this option is not selected, then the order is updated, but is placed in a status of suspense.

The Track Component Lots and Serials to Parent program (enabling you to link the lots and serial numbers of component parts to the parent part) is called if:

  • you selected the setup options: Require component to parent lot tracking and/or Require component to parent serial tracking (WIP Setup - Lots and Serials tab) and
  • the components and the parent part are defined as serialized and/or lot traceable (Stock Code Maintenance - Tracking) and
  • you selected the option: Capture serials at end of WIP inspection and/or Capture lots at end of WIP inspection (WIP Setup - General 1 tab).

If Inventory is linked to the General Ledger (General Ledger Integration - General tab), then the following journal is created:

  • Debit to the Warehouse control account (Warehouse Maintenance)
  • Credit to Ledger Code entered against the Accept transaction (above)

If defined and applicable, the following Event Management events (see Event Management), are triggered when items are accepted into stock from inspection:

  • Allocation exceeds quantity on hand (Inventory events)
  • Allocation + minimum exceeds on hand (Inventory events)
  • Stock above maximum (Inventory events)
  • Job receipted into stock (WIP events)
Accept details  
Uom This indicates the unit of measure for the quantity.
Quantity accepted

Enter the quantity of the stock item you want to receive into stock.

The total quantity accepted cannot exceed the manufactured quantity less the sum of the quantities already accepted into stock, sent for rework and scrapped.

The quantity cannot be negative.

Concession

Enter a concession reference associated with the specific Lot, if applicable.

A concession is usually indicates that although the item deviates from the original specification, it is still acceptable to and fit for its purpose.

Notation Enter a notation, if required. The notation is printed on the Inventory Journal Report.
Ledger code

This defaults to the WIP inspection control account defined against the warehouse (see Browse on Warehouses). If this is not defined, then the field defaults to the WIP inspection control account defined on the WIP tab of the General Ledger Integration program.

You can change the ledger code providing you have not been denied access to the activity: WIP Inspection change accept G/L (Operator Maintenance - Security -Activities).

You can only change the ledger code if the setup option: Request ledger codes for inventory transactions is selected (Inventory Setup - Options tab).

The ledger code must exist and cannot be on hold (GL Structure Definition).

Lot

This indicates the lot number to which the item(s) must be allocated.

This is only enabled for a lot traceable stock code (Stock Code Maintenance - Tracking).

You must enter the required lot number if the option: Capture lots at end of WIP inspection is selected (WIP Setup - General 1 tab) and lot numbering is not set to Automatic (Lot Traceability Setup - General tab).

the job number is displayed as the default lot number if the setup option: Lot number to be equal to job number is selected (Lot Traceability Setup - General tab).

This field is disabled when the option: Automatic lot numbering is enabled (Lot Traceability Setup - General tab). The generated lot number is displayed when you select the Post function, providing the preference: Give information about generated lot is selected (WIP Inspection Maintenance - Preferences).

You can re-use the same lot number for different stock codes when the option: Same lot to be used on multiple stock codes (Lot Traceability Setup) is enabled.

If you used the Parent/Lot Serial Reservation program to reserve lots, then this field defaults to the reserved lot. You can receipt the finished item into a different lot, providing the activity: WIP changing reserved lots/serials for parent (Operator Maintenance - Security tab) is not denied against your operator code.

Lot numbers

Select the Edit hyperlink to add multiple lots being received into stock using the Lot Capture program.

This hyperlink is not available if:

  • you are processing a negative receipt

  • you have enabled automatic numbering for lots

  • if you are using inspection and have selected the WIP setup option Capture lots at end of WIP inspection

  • you have already selected the lots

If multiple bins are in use, the bin must be entered before selecting the hyperlink.

If values are entered in the expiry date and concession fields, these will be used as default values when adding multiple lots.

Expiry date

This indicates the current expiry date for the lot. This is calculated as the shelf life period defined against the stock item (Stock Code Maintenance - Tracking), to the current date.

If the lot already exists on file and has an expiry date greater than zero, then that date is displayed.

Serial Numbers

Select this to use the Serial Entry for WIP Inspection program to specify the serial numbers to accept.

This function is only enabled if the item you are accepting is defined as serialized and serial numbers are captured during receipt (Stock Code Maintenance - Tracking tab).

If the setup option: Capture serials at end of WIP inspection is selected (WIP Setup - General 1 tab), then only serial numbers not already in inspection can be entered. If the parent stock code is defined as batch serialized, then the accepted quantity can be added to an existing serial number if the setup option: Multiple batch serial receipts allowed is selected (Inventory Setup – Options tab). If the option: Same serial to be used for multiple stock codes is not selected then you cannot enter a serial number that already exists against another stock code.

If serial numbers were entered at the time of receipting the job into inspection (i.e. the setup option: Capture serials at end of WIP inspection is not selected (WIP Setup - General 1 tab), then you can only select serial numbers already in inspection.

If you used the Parent/Lot Serial Reservation program to reserve serials, then the item is assigned the reserved serial numbers when receipting them into stock. You can allocate different serials only if the activity: WIP changing reserved lots/serials for parent (Operator Maintenance - Security tab) is not set to denied against your operator code.

Alternate warehouse  
Accept into an alternate warehouse

If the item you are receipting comes from a sub-job and you select to receipt the item into an alternate warehouse, then the item is not issued to the master job.

If the item you are receipting is linked to a sales order, then the sales order line is not updated.

If you select this option, then the quantity in inspection against the original warehouse is reduced by the quantity accepted and the value in inspection is reduced by the transaction value. The quantity on hand in the alternate warehouse is increased by the quantity accepted.

If your Costing method is set to Standard (Inventory Setup - General tab or Warehouses for Stock Code if costing per warehouse is selected), and the standard cost in the alternate warehouse differs from the standard cost in the original warehouse, then the difference is posted to the warehouse variance account defined against the alternate warehouse (see Browse on Warehouses).

If the cost exceeds the acceptable cost variance percentage defined against the setup option: Acceptable cost variancepercentage (Inventory Setup - General tab), and a password is defined against the activity: Inventory override on inventory cost variance (Password Definition), then the password must be entered before the item can be accepted into the alternate warehouse.

If the stock item is defined as a MPS item (Stock Code Maintenance - Production tab) and a build schedule exists for the item, then the build schedule for the item and alternate warehouse combination is updated with the quantity accepted.

Warehouse

Enter the existing warehouse into which the stock item must be receipted.

The stock item must be stocked in the warehouse you select (see Warehouses for Stock Code) and you must have access to the warehouse (Operators - Security tab - Warehouses).

Alternate bin location  
Accept into an alternate bin location This option is enabled if you are using Multiple bins (Inventory Setup).
Bin location You use this field to enter the bin location into which the item must be placed in stock (see Multiple Bins for Stock Code).
Alternate stock code  
Accept as an alternate stock code

Select this to accept the item into stock as an alternate (different) stock code. Alternate stock codes are maintained using the Alternate Stock Codes program.

If you reserved serials for the parent item, then you can process the receipt to the alternate stock code using the serials reserved from the original stock code. The Reserved Serials are updated against the original stock code and the stock on hand is reflected against the alternate stock code's serials. Note that this only applies if the option: Same serial to be used for multiple stock codes is selected (Inventory Setup). If this option is not selected then you will not be able to receipt reserved serials into an alternate stock code from inspection.

If the setup option: Capture lots at end of WIP inspection is not selected (WIP Setup - General 1 tab), then the Lot traceability option defined against the alternate stock item must match that defined against the original stock item (Stock Code Maintenance - Tracking).

If the item you are receipting comes from a sub-job and you select to receipt the item into as an alternate stock item, then the item is not issued to the master job.

If the item you are receipting is linked to a sales order, then the sales order line is not updated.

Alternate stock codes defined as ECC controlled (Stock Code Maintenance - Tracking), are receipted into stock at the current revision/release.

If you select this option then the quantity in inspection against the original warehouse and original stock code is reduced by the quantity accepted and the value in inspection is reduced by the transaction value. The quantity on hand for the alternate stock code is increased by the quantity accepted.

If the alternate stock item is defined as a MPS item (Stock Code Maintenance - Production Details) and a build schedule exists for the alternate stock item, then the build schedule for the alternate stock item is updated with the quantity accepted.

If your Costing method is set to Standard (Inventory Setup - General tab or Warehouses for Stock Code, if costing by warehouse is selected), and the standard cost of the alternate stock item differs from the standard cost in the original stock item, then the difference is posted to the warehouse variance account defined for the warehouse against the inspection reference or against the alternate warehouse if the option: Accept into alternate warehouse is also selected (see Browse on Warehouses).

If the cost exceeds the acceptable cost variance percentage defined against the setup option: Acceptable cost variancepercentage (Inventory Setup - General tab), and a password is defined against the activity: Inventory override on inventory cost variance (Password Definition), then the password must be entered before the item can be accepted as an alternate stock code.

This option is only enabled under one of the following conditions:

  • The Lot traceability option against the stock item is set to Inspection required (Stock Code Maintenance - Tracking)
  • The Lot traceability option against the stock item is set to Traceable (Stock Code Maintenance - Tracking) and the setup option: Same lot to be used on multiple stock codes is selected (Lot Traceability Setup)
  • The Serial tracking method against the stock item is set to Manual or Batch (Stock Code Maintenance - Tracking) and the setup option: Capture serials at end of WIP inspection is selected (WIP Setup -General 1 tab)

If the item is lot traceable and you are not allowed to use the same lot number for multiple stock codes and you have already entered the lot number at time of job receipt then WIP Inspection will not allow you to receipt an item as an alternate stock code. This is because the lot is already associated with the primary stock code.

Stock code

Enter the alternate stock code to use. The alternate stock code must exist and be stocked in either the warehouse against the inspection reference or in the alternate warehouse (if you selected the option: Accept into alternate warehouse (above)).

[Note]

If actual costing is selected for lots and/or serials (Inventory Setup - General tab) and standard costing is defined at warehouse or company level, then you can only use an alternate lot traceable or batch serialized stock code which has the same actual costing tracking method as the original stock code.

You can use the Select option to browse on available alternate stock codes using the Alternate Stock Codes program.

If a password is defined for the activity: WIP Accept into stock as alternate stock code (Password Definition), then the password must be entered before an alternate stock code can be specified.

Stock code description This indicates the description defined against the alternate stock code selected.
Automatic issue for receipted If the stock item accepted is from a sub-job, then the quantity accepted is issued to the master job (providing you have not selected to accept the item into an alternate warehouse or as an alternate stock code).
Job This indicates the master job to which the stock item is issued when you accept the item into stock.

Inspection Transactions

The transactions for the current inspection reference are displayed in this listview.

Column Description
WIP inspection reference Indicates the inspection reference number.
Lot Indicates the lot for the stock item, if the stock item is defined as lot traceable (Stock Code Maintenance - Tracking).
Transaction Indicates the transactions processed for the item.
Quantity Indicates the quantity for the transactions processed for the item.
Concession Indicates the concession reference associated with the specific Lot, if applicable.
Document Indicates the document number for the inspection transaction.
Scrap code Indicates the reason code for scrapping the item(s). WIP Scrap Reason codes are maintained using the Browse on Scrap Reasons program.
Rework job If the item was issued back to the job for rework, then this indicates the job number to which the item(s) were sent for rework.
Alternate warehouse Indicates the alternate warehouse into which the item was accepted into stock from WIP inspection, if applicable.

Inspection Quantities

Field Description
Manufactured

Indicates the quantity receipted from the job using the Job Receipts program.

This quantity is not reduced when you issue an item back to the job for rework, but is increased by the number of items returned for rework. The reason is that the items have to be "re-manufactured."

Inspected

Indicates the quantity received into inspection.

It is automatically updated with the quantity you post using the Inspect function.

Inspection complete

Indicates whether or not the inspection reference is complete.

An inspection reference is set to complete when the Accepted quantity + Rework quantity + Scrapped quantity = Manufactured quantity. In addition, an inspection reference is only set to complete automatically if no variances exist in the WIP inspection ledger account for the WIP inspection reference.

WIP inspection references cannot be set to complete manually.

You use the WIP Inspection Variance Review program to view and clear variances left in Work in Progress for completed WIP inspection references.

Scrapped

Indicates the quantity scrapped and is defined as zero when the item is first received into inspection.

It is automatically updated with the quantity you post using the Scrap function.

Rework

Indicates the quantity sent for rework and is defined as zero when the item is first received into inspection.

It is automatically updated with the quantity you post using the Rework function

Accepted

Indicates the quantity accepted into stock and is defined as zero when the item is first received into inspection.

It is automatically updated with the quantity you post using the Accept function.

You cannot process a transaction to accept the item(s) into stock if:

Stock Information

Column Description
Stock on hand Indicates the quantity of the item physically in the warehouse. This includes quantities on hold.
Stock available

The quantity available is the quantity on hand less the quantity allocated to sales orders for the item in the selected warehouse. The quantity allocated to sales orders is the order quantity and includes quantities on backorder.

[Note]

The quantity available includes stock on hold, stock in expired lots, stock locked by Engineering Change Orders and stock in bins that are on hold. The reason is that the quantity on hand (used in the calculation) is the quantity physically in the warehouse and includes quantities on hold.

In transit Indicates the outstanding non-immediate warehouse transfers shown against the target warehouse.
Allocated Indicates the quantity allocated to sales orders plus the quantity reserved for material allocations if the Reserve stock for allocations option is enabled (WIP Setup).
On order Indicates the quantity of outstanding purchase orders, made-in jobs and supply chain transfers.
On back order Indicates the sales order back order quantity. This quantity excludes unallocated scheduled order back order quantities.
In inspection Indicates the quantity of purchased items awaiting inspection (i.e. receipted into inspection but not receipted into stock).
